I should probably point out that this looks far better than the previous attempts at making Godzilla for TV.







I mean oof... At least Zone Fighter just kind of happens to guest star Godzilla and the one based on the Tristar Godzilla was probably made as part of some license agreement but others... Did HB really hate the colors grey and light blue? How are the Godzilla monsters appropriate for pre-school educational material? And how the hell did footage literally depicting a bunch of action figures being smashed together end up on TV?

how are the other japanese godzilla shows? I've always wanted to watch Zone Fighter and Godzilla Island but when I found out about them like a decade ago it was impossible to find them. Godzilland looks cute.

The Hanna Barbera Godzilla cartoon was indeed bad and Godzilla 1998 the series cartoon is good but not as great as people say it is

Zone Fighter is an Ultraman style show that happens to have Godzilla in it. Pretty much imagine the goofier Godzilla movies from the 60's with the Ultraman formula.

Godzilla Island is literally footage of toys being wiggled around, it's a very pointless production that would have ended up on Youtube or something if it was made half a decade later or so. Nobody would put something like that on actual TV these days.

Godzillaland is obviously just an educational show like Sesame Street. Unless you have a kid around who needs to learn how to read Japanese, there's not much point to watching it. Obviously such shows have a good purpose, it's just a bizarre choice to make cutesy edutainment starring characters who are mostly known for beating eachother to death and destroying cities in the process.

Godzilla is sort of like their Batman, in that he is ultra flexible and hard to break as a character/concept. From plushy to soul-crushing monster. It's what the TMNT should be as a franchise, as well.
